Starbuc71 162 Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 They are probably fake splinters like the memory bricks at MK they are giving to people who had them. Political red tape..lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LONE-STAR 370 Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Just got back from a week and a half at the Fort. So far the construction does not cause any problems for camping. But not saying it's a pretty site. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

geoffdaddy 33 Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Returned back from the Fort a couple of days ago. So far, I'd have to say that the impact to the Fort is minimal, so here's hoping it stays that way. So much so that I retract some of my Negative Nancy sentiments. 🙂 BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PGHFiend 140 Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 The worst I heard was some tree chipping. I'm hopeful it stays that way. I clearly remeber everyone was beside themselves about the villas at the lodge. It looks as if they almost grew there now....they do a pretty good job when they try.

I agree the lodge looks really nice. Although I noticed on our last trip there are a few of those lake front cabins that I would not want. Every body on the boat from MK can see right in them. The other cabins closer to the Fort would be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 I also agree that what they did at the Lodge is, overall, nicely done, and I've somewhat defended Disney in that regard earlier in this thread. I'm sure what they do with Reflections will be beautiful. But based on the plans we've seen over the past month, in particular the eastern most group of cabins, I think an accurate comparison would be to imagine they had built Lodge cabins across the area where the geyser sits, from the boat dock to the Geyser Point bar, blocking the unimpeded view from the pool and lobby. That I think would approximate the impact we'll see to the Settlement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

djsamuel 322 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Here are some pictures taken today of the area formerly known as River Country. The first 3 pictures were taken where the River Country Entrance used to be (near Clementine's Beach): This picture shows how you can now see the Contemporary from the horse barn: BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
